after amateur tries to update MLT to 0.5.6 i have left without ffmpeg modules and even ffpmeg is installed, kdenlive says that some not installed at all. also it says that some sound module is not installed. i spent all day to make "lines and dots" bug dissappear (white lines and dots - was promised to be fixed in MLT 0.5.5) and i couldn't make it, even worse - now modules "avformat module", "Quimage module", "Title module" are missing and reinstalling of the program and ffmpeg does not helping.
help me please to make this thing work correctly. my skype is "woanerges", or write me here. please, bro's, come on, i need some support here!

white dots and lines examples:

i have figured out that i'm getting constant error, when i'm trying to instal MLT from source package:

how to make these things go right?

My first guess: Recompile with -fPIC. At least it says so in the error log ;)

But let's start from the beginning:

What distribution are you using? 32bit or 64bit variant?
How are you trying to compile? Following the steps in http://kdenlive.org/user-manual/downloading-and-installing-kdenlive/installing-source ?
Have you mixed packages from the distribution repositiories with ones that you compiled yourself, e.g. FFMPEG from repos?

For now there's just too much you left to guess to really help, sorry.

And please don't use 'sudo make', just 'make'. sudo is only needed at the 'make insall' step (unless the Makefile doesn't provide a separate install target). Avoid sudo whenever you can; this isn't Windows :)

that's ok! thanx pseudoruprecht for trying to help! i'll tell you here:
ubuntu 10.04 x64,
i'm following these steps to install MLT: http://kdenlive.org/user-manual/downloading-and-installing-kdenlive/installing-source/installing-mlt-rendering-engine

before installing ffmpeg from source package i removed old installations with this command:
sudo apt-get remove ffmpeg x264 libx264-dev

also wanted to ask what is -fPIC? and how to compile with fPIC?
